In the wake of the Bisard scandal, any new chief that came in was going to be facing a mucking-out chore of Augean Stable proportions. It would take a leader of Herculean abilities to carry it off, and unfortunately the new guy is just not giving off that kind of vibe..

Unfortunately, very few SEALS with PhD's in abnormal psychology/divinity get hired these days

In the best departments:30% are the princes/princesses of the city-high achievers50% are working class people who just needed a job-not bad people but they have to be led.20% are walking dead, with a sizable portion out and out sociopaths.Add in political interference and strong unions which protect their most useless members.Such is our reality.

28 years on the job, 20 as a supervisor/commander with some time running internal affairs.
